Din, since this is a new bumper with all new paint, you should talk to RMMGS4 about making custom skid plates and lining the bumper with Xpel. Xpel is a thin film membrane that absorbs the impact of quarter-sized stones at up to 90mph or something and the skid plate prevents scraping over driveways, potholes, speed bumps, and parking blocks. Some things I would definitely look into if I had all new kit and paint....

Yep, completely clear. In person all you can really see is the faint lines where the xpel was cut.

Here's Xpel on a GS: https://www.clublexus.com/forums/sho...highlight=xpel

Nice ride... Added a breath of fresh air in the the lungs of an already great car!!! "IF" you want a rear spoiler... Get a 92' - 96' style one it is better integrated and has a smoother flowing look...

Great car!! Nice colour too

And I agree, don't get a rearspoiler. It's perfect the way it is now.

Thumbs up!

Im pretty sure Im going to stay spolierless.


Is it me or do all 97+ SCs come with rear trunk spoliers. I have yet to see one without one.
